Why “graded reader” and “newspaper” should be the same file
Easy Spanish articles die when they are fake dialogues. A Spanish newspaper for beginners should still feel like a story about real life — tapas, work, family — written at A1. Newslang rewrites each piece so you read news-shaped Spanish, not unit 3 of a textbook.
If you already looked at easy Spanish news, this is the reading angle: sit with a text, tap words, listen. Same app, same A1 switch.
